Ja’Von’s Weekly IMPACT Wrestling YouTube Report (7/5/18)

This week’s episode of IMPACT Wrestling saw two more matches get announced for Slammiversary, a first ever match between Rich Swann and Fenix and LAX begin a civil war. All this lead to IMPACT Wrestling finally breaking 300K viewers since mid-May of this year (you can check that out here). How does an increase in viewership equal into views on YouTube? Well let’s dive on in and check it out.

Here is the weekly YouTube Report (numbers collected at 4:30pm EST):

1. Homicide and Hernandez RETURN and lay waste to LAX: 281K views
2. Sami Callihan Disguises Himself as Pentagon Jr. to Take Out Fenix: 137K views
3. Allie & Madison Rayne vs Su Yung & Undead Bridesmaid of Honor: 78K views
4. Brian Cage vs Kongo Kong: 71K views

When looking at the weekly report for this week’s show, it seems that LAX and Sami Callihan are the stars this week. Sami continues to be one of the biggest draws and heels in this industry today and anything he does turns to gold. Last week we saw Callihan take the mask of Pentagon Jr. and this week he put that mask to use by disguising as Pentagon to get the upper hand on Fenix to take his mask. Which was very brilliant and something you don’t see too much from American wrestling.

This week’s epiosde also saw Konnan call out King for attacking him back at Redemption, which lead to Homicide and Hernandez making their returns to the company. The segment ended up closing the show and it looks like we have a civil war among the two groups known as LAX. For quite some time now, LAX has just been coasting by, but now it seems they are finally doing something right that fans can’t help but have their eyes glued to and want more.

The Knockouts tag match wasn’t all that great, which is why I’m shocked to see it put these numbers up. It was okay for what it was and it got the job done.

When you think of Brian Cage vs. Kongo Kong, you think boring right? Well guess what, you’re wrong. These two heavyweights put on one hell of a slobberknocker that saw Cage hit a 619 and Kongo Kong hit a hurricanrana from the top rope.
